Analytical models of phenomena ( equations from physics) Create an equation from observed data 1) Interpolation (connect the data-dots)If data is reliable, we can plot it and connect the dotsThis is piece-wise, linear interpolation This has limited use as a general function Since its really a group of small s, connecting one point to the nextit doesn t work very well for data that has built in random error (scatter)2) Curve Fitting - capturing the trend in the data by assigning a single function across the entire example below uses a straight line function A straight line is described generically by f(x)
